Welcome back to We Needed Roads, and this is your FULL SPOILER WARNING, because today we’re heading back to Derry… and nothing is safe. 🎈Neil, David and Luke dive headfirst into the storm drain of Welcome to Derry, HBO’s Stephen King–soaked return to the town that really should’ve been condemned decades ago. We’re turtles,, cursed history, nightmare fuel, and how this show plugs into the ever-expanding, deeply messed-up Stephen King verse.We break down what works, what absolutely doesn’t, how much lore is too much lore, and whether this prequel actually adds something meaningful to IT… or just proves that don't move to Derry? Expect deep cuts, wild theories, connections to other King adaptations, and at least one moment where someone says “wait… that means Pennywise has been doing this HOW long?!”And because no good idea goes unpunished, stick around for the post-credits scene, where David attempts the Pennywise dance — a moment so horrifying it may genuinely be the most upsetting thing discussed all episode. (now do the bow...)So grab your red balloons, avoid storm drains, and let’s talk Welcome to Derry… spoilers, trauma, and Stephen King multiverse chaos included.If you love movies, TV, geek culture or listening to four people passionately argue about things that haven’t even released yet… give us a LIKE, drop a COMMENT, and hit SUBSCRIBE so we can lurk in your algorithm foreverFollow We Needed Roads Podcast on the socials:🐦 Twitter/Xhttps://twitter.com/NeededRoads📸 Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/weneededroads🎵 TikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@weneededroadspodcast🎧 Follow us on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/0E31ucDQy7Ha5PRdtahAjb?si=50a97260f09f4ad7👤 Our SocialsNeilhttps://bsky.app/profile/neilg78.bsky.socialhttps://www.instagram.com/neil_gregory78Neil’s Substack:https://substack.com/@greggors78Davidhttps://bsky.app/profile/llongd.bsky.social@llongd.bsky.socialJose🐦 https://x.com/aspanishjoe📸 https://www.instagram.com/joselopezphotos📷 https://www.jlopezphotos.com🎙 Our GuestLuke🎵 https://www.tiktok.com/@the_howdybeans_podcast?lang=en-GB📸 https://www.instagram.com/the_gingerbook_worm/🐦 https://x.com/HowdyBeans_podHis podcast – The Howdy Beans Podcast:🎧 https://open.spotify.com/show/74Pe9IWfTxxbVgEcTt47SG?si=b833c0f80fb442c9🚗 Fund Our Quest for a DeLoreanhttps://www.buymeacoffee.com/Weneededroads #MoviePodcast #TVPodcast #WeNeededRoads #FilmTalk #GeekPodcast #MoviePreview #PodcastUK #FilmDiscussion #PopCulture #weneededroads #welcometoderry #stephenking #it #andymuschietti #pennywise
